It means that someone likes to be warned when GNU security provider is 
used by default.
There should be an elegant way to switch off this warning.
I guess that the compiler is also not placed at /datal/gcc/build/wingcc
(anyway... it should not have to be)...
But there is a not-so-elegant way to avoid that warning:
Provider spv=new gnu.java.security.provider.Gnu();
And, from now on, explicitly use spv...
Here is a simple example:
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5", spv);
As for the other (and most interesting) bump, I think someone will
comment on it soon (at least I hope so because I am also curious).
